Well... so why not changing the week number to the month nunmber? Would be more understandeable IMHO...:confused:

No clue, maxi. Not my system.

EDIT: I just realized I may be wrong on that "day of the month" identifier. It's not important anyway.

Your search - v. 3.2007.27-5 - did not match any documents.

Suggestions:

* Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
* Try different keywords.
* Try more general keywords.
* Try fewer keywords.

Yeah, I think I was thinking of something else, Seb.

This doesn't work for 1.2006.26-8 2.2006.39-14 (neither week 26 or 39 had day 8 or 14 falling within the respective week). I thought the final digit was the build number within the week, ie. build attempt. The original N800 firmware was 2.2006.51-6 yet some devices shipped with 2.2006.51-7 - again no day 6 or 7 fell in week 51 (period 18 Dec to 24 Dec) so the discrepancy is most likely explained by an extra build of the code base sometime within week 51.

Code:

V: means version
3: Sequential number, starting with 1
2007: Year of build - not related to OS version
10: Week of build within year
7: Build number within week

If there is a firmware release tomorrow, the firmware version will be 4.2007.xx-yy where xx is a week from about 6 weeks ago (when the build occurred - allow ~6 weeks for QA, eg. 21) and yy will be some random number between 1 and 30! :)

My guess... 4.2007.21-8

:D

Hey Texrat! Can you tell me when it's coming? Celebrations are way over now and my F5 key starts to wear out.
Yesterday it was tomorrow, what is it today?

Ton.

tomorrow. Don't you get it? it will always be tomorrow.

...

and cherry on the cake, this is an absolutely exact prediction, and I can tell you precisely when it will be correct:

the day before the release date

Hahaha
